abvh100 challenge of the week, Weapon of Choice. Yes, I'm a Fatboy Slim fan.
Title: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Characters: Anita, Asher
abvh100Challenge: #55 - Weapon of Choice
fanfic100 Prompt: 078 -- Where?
Word Count: 100
Disclaimer: Laurell K. Hamilton owns all things Anita Blake. Only the story is my own.
Rating: PG
Note: Takes place at some point after Cerulean Sins, in which Anita and Asher became intimate.

"Where did you learn to fire a handgun?" Anita asked, sprawled on the couch in Jean-Claude's office.
Asher blinked. Should he tell her how he first picked up a gun after he heard Jean-Claude had taken a human servant? Of the many cold months in France, firing repeatedly into the practice target, fantasizing of killing Jean-Claude's human servant, making him hurt as much as Asher hurt when Julianna died, when Jean-Claude's failure murdered her?
Asher looked at Anita, warm and alive and innocently curious. He forced a smile. "Modern handguns are like revolvers, cherie. I learned long ago," he lied.

Title: Cutting Smile
Word Count: 100
Characters: Nathaniel
Challenge: #55 - Weapon of Choice
Note: Occurs at some point around Incubus Dreams. No spoilers.
~~*~~
Nathaniel smiled at the women waiting for him outside Guilty Pleasures. The smile held the right mix of shyness and sex appeal and confidence. It was his "take me home and keep me safe" smile.
Fumbling, one woman asked for his autograph, and he added puzzled surprise and delight to the smile, bending a little closer to her, making it much more personal. Nathaniel knew she'd be back soon, with more money to hand to him as he undressed.
For the longest time, Nathaniel's looks were the only weapon he had. He still wielded them like a cutting blade.

I really want to see more of Asher, what he's like now that he and Anita are lovers. Has he become more stable? Or is he more fearful of losing her? Luckily, I hear a rumour that there will be some Asher in the next book. Yay!
Oh, Nathaniel. His scene on stage in Incubus Dreams, and when he was going into the club, was really neat to see how he is. I wonder how much of that was an act, being all confident. Then contrast with his time with Anita -- how much of his shy reserve is an act, because it's what he thinks she wants?
